Notes on Local Author

This statistical release presents the Accredited Official Statistics on the stock owned by local authority registered providers in England on 31 March 2024. Based on data from the Regulator of Social Housing’s Local Authority Data Return (LADR) it provides details of local authority registered provider (LARP) owned stock and details rents reported for low cost rental stock (social and Affordable Rents).

The release comprises a briefing note, a dynamic look-up tool (Excel based) allowing users to view details of stock in individual local authority areas and regions, additional data tables, raw data from the LADR and technical documentation.

The statistics derived from the LADR data and published as local authority registered provider social housing stock and rents in England are considered by the United Kingdom Statistics Authority’s regulatory arm – the Office for Statistics Regulation – to have met the highest standards of trustworthiness, quality and public value, and are considered an Accredited Official Statistic. For more information see the data quality and methodology note.

The responsible statistician for this statistical release was Amanda Hall. The lead official was Will Perry.

These statistics are based on data from the LADR. This return, which was collected by the RSH for the first time in 2020, collects data on stock size, types, location and rents as at 31 March. All registered Local Authority providers of social housing in England are required to complete the LADR, providing the regulator with data on stock and rent levels in order that it may regulate social housing rents.

Prior to 2020 the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), published similar statistics on stock and rents for Local Authorities based on data collected through their Local Authority Housing Statistic. The differences in collection methodology between the LADR and LAHS and the statistical methodology employed between MHCLG and RSH statistical releases are explored in detail in the technical notes.

Statistical queries on this publication should be directed to the Referrals and Regulatory Enquiries team on 0300 124 5235 or mail enquiries@rsh.gov.uk.

Users are encouraged to provide comments and feedback on how these statistics are used and how they meet their needs either through our feedback rating icons on all published documents or through direct email contact (please send these entitled “LARP statistics feedback” to enquiries@rsh.gov.uk).

An accessible HTML summary of the key findings from the report has been included on this page. If you require any further information, please contact enquiries@rsh.gov.uk.

All registered Local Authority providers of social housing in England are required to complete the LADR, providing the regulator with data on stock and rent levels in order that it may regulate social housing rents.

The LADR data collection is reliant on definitions and guidance from the Policy Statement on Rents for Social Housing that apply from 2020, as this is the basis by which RSH will regulate rents post 1 April 2020.

This is the first publication of these statistics based on the LADR data collected by RSH. Previously, MHCLG published similar statistics on stock and rents for Local Authorities based on data collected through their Local Authority Housing Statistic. The differences in collection methodology between the LADR and LAHS and the statistical methodology employed between MHCLG and RSH statistical releases are explored in detail in the technical notes.

In 2020/21 the publication of these statistics was delayed due to the Coronavirus pandemic, with the release occurring in February 2021 rather than the originally planned September 2020.

The latest statistics provided by local authorities in England on their local authority housing statistics form for 2012 to 2013 were released on Thursday 19 December 2013.

The main points from this release are:

• local authorities in England owned 1.68 million dwellings on 1 April 2013, a decrease of 0.6% from last year. There has been a general decline from 2.81 million on 1 April 2001

• local authority landlords in England made 134,700 lettings during 2012 to 2013, decreasing from 140,900 during 2011 to 2012. This follows a general decline from 326,600 in 2000 to 2001

• the average local authority social rent in England in 2012 to 2013 was £78.78 per week. This is 7% higher than in 2011 to 2012

• there were 1.69 million households on local authority waiting lists on 1 April 2013, a decrease of 8.6% on the 1.85 million on 1 April 2012. Changes in waiting list numbers can reflect administrative and policy changes as well as changes in the demand for social housing

• in 2012 to 2013 local authorities reported that 6,140 evictions were carried out by court bailiffs, approximately the same number that were reported in 2011 to 2012. The vast majority (81%) of these were for rent arrears

• as at 1 April 2013, there were 184,000 “non-decent” local authority owned dwellings across England, a decrease from 214,000 on 1 April 2012. This is 11% of all local authority owned stock
